Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process under the title "UKRI-5020 STFC High Voltage (HV) - maintenance, reactive, remedial and project works" was commissioned by UK Research & Innovation (UKRI), a body governed by public law situated in Swindon, Wiltshire. Classified under the Repair and Maintenance Services of Electrical Machinery and Equipment industry category, this contract focused on services related to high voltage maintenance. The procurement was conducted using an open procedure, covered by the GPA, and completed as of 17th September 2025, with the contract having been signed on 4th August 2025. The tender was focused on services for locations within the UK, specifically in the Warrington area (region UKD61). The procurement process culminated with Valen Power Ltd being awarded the contract valued at £532,000.

This tender presented significant opportunities for business growth, especially for suppliers in the field of electrical maintenance and repair. The contract specifically encouraged participation from Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs), as evidenced by the awarded contract to an SME, Valen Power Ltd. Businesses adept in providing Planned, Preventative Maintenance (PPM), reactive and remedial works in compliance with high voltage safety standards stood a good chance in competing for this opportunity. Companies with the capability to deliver swift and effective response times, as specified, and those offering a blend of quality (weighted at 70%) and competitive pricing (30%) were especially well-suited to secure the contract. This procurement serves as a foothold for businesses in the electrical services industry to establish or enhance their presence in public sector contracting.
